About Helen Pickney Scarlett

Helen Pinckney (8) , was also an active horsewoman and athlete. She used to run wolves with hounds, and when the wolf was brought to bay, she would ride in and club it with a long billards cue butt she carried for the purpose. In 1901 she married a typical English sportsman, John Lawrence (Jack) Scarlett of Gigha Argyllshire, Scotland. Helen's untimely death occurred on August 14, 1902, from diabetes, after little more than a year of marriage.
